Press Release, North Branford Land Conservation Trust

Join the North Branford Land Conservation Trust (NBLCT) on Saturday, September 24 at 9:30am for a ribbon cutting of our new bridge and trail at Harrison Farm Preserve.

The bridge and trail built by NBLCT volunteers connects the Harrison Farm Preserve to a half-mile tract of Regional Water Authority (RWA) land. As part of our partnership with RWA, a portion of the yellow trail is now located on RWA “Class 3” (non-watershed) land, allowing a much longer hike into a portion of the RWA forest with larger, older trees.

An optional hike on the new yellow trail extension will follow the ribbon cutting. A half mile walk, from the trail kiosk, is required to reach the bridge.

Directions to Harrison Farm Preserve:

Near the end of North Street in North Branford, bear right, at the fork, go up the hill and follow the signs toward Harrison Farm Preserve. You may want to park on North Street.
